Thanks for the ideas - perhaps I should stop unblocking our shower and let nature take its course!

I balance on each leg and lean on the wall to do it with my shower sponge but periodically I do soak them in a bowl of warm water and try to give myself a pedicure. As I can't see properly or reach my toes the varnish part isn't much of a success grin

One of our showers has a plug that foes up and down - does yours? You could close it and let the shower tray fill up, obviously watching the level.

Or bung the hole with a flannel.

I stand in a large washing up bowl in the shower so that my feet get a good soak. It's lovely!

I bought a washing-up bowl just for my feet and sit and soak them until the water turns cold. It does a power of good to the feet as well as making the toe-nails easier to cut. Then I massage them when dry with Avon foot balm-------bliss !

Could you put a small plastic chair in the shower and sit on that? It would be easier to reach your feet then.

I find it very hard to wash my feet and between my toes in the shower. I had a sort of sponge on a stick to do the job, but the sponge fell apart after about two uses. I have just bought a similar item as it was on offer and very cheap, but I do not hold out any hope that it will last very long!

Anyone got any solutions to this?
